Someday is Today.
On September 1st I started a journey to become healthy. I was overweight and miserable. A simple set of stairs made me feel like a chain smoker. I was constantly tired, I was depressed, I started to develop pains in my legs when I walked. I went to a chiropractic clinic convincing myself that I had pulled a muscle due to…

Insanity or P90X
I'm really having trouble deciding which system to go with. I've heard so many great things about both. I'm in a position now where I don't have a whole lot more weight to loose.. maybe 20lbs at the absolute most. I just need to start toning at this point. Suggestions anyone?

Venting...
I need to vent a little bit.. It's the same story really, girl goes on diet, girl looses weight, girl hits plateau... I'm on the Ideal Protein Diet. It's been absolutely fabulous. Over the last year I've had a nice steady weight loss of about one to two lbs a week. Not too fast, not to slow, just steady. It's been very…

I went to the gym after work four to five times a week. I kept this up for three months or so. My husband was deployed at the time.. and since he came home..…

Swimming..
I'd really like to start getting into swimming and thanks to a real stroke of luck (Pun totally intended) I have the use of a neighbors pool whenever I want. However, I have no idea where I should begin when it comes to setting up a routine. I'm planning on going twice a week to do laps, but how many laps and how long…

My turn for a very silly question...
Alright, so this is something I've been confused about my entire life and never really thought about getting clarified until now. Water. Exactly how much should a person have a day? Some people claim it's eight cups others claim it's eight glasses. I noticed this website measure it in cups, are we talking standard baking…

Yet another newb.
Hi all! I'm Neona or Nx for short and I'm a new member to myfitnesspal.com. Having recently moved back to my hometown, I'm trying to get my life back on track. I'm proud to say today I joined a 24 hour gym and hopefully I can stay motivated enough to use it. Truthfully I'm a total sloth and getting out of the house can be…
